NTAL (non-T cell activation linker), as known as LAT2, is transmembrane adaptor protein (TRAP) associated with glycolipid-enriched membrane fractions (GEM or lipid rafts). This protein is primarily expressed in spleen and hematopoietic cells, such as B cells, mast cells, NK cells, and monocytes, but not resting T cells. Defects in NTAL may be a cause of certain cardiovascular and musculo-skeletal abnormalities observed in Williams-Beuren syndrome (WBS).
